Goodreads
Peppa Pig is a popular character in the age 2 – 5 circles, this book holds lots of excitement for pre-school children as there are six stories included within. The hard cover is a good choice and the binding appears to be worthy of potential loving abuse. The price for this collection is a plus as individual copies of the stories would be higher. Each story is simple and the illustrations colorfully sweet.
Not a fan of books that follow a TV series I have to admit that a special little one in my life loves Peppa Pig. Although a good choice as a gift this may not be the best purchase for a library. Young audiences are more apt to want individual titles that are easier to hold and carry around with their favorite stuffy. Libraries and K classrooms may prefer paper copies that can be shelved with other books in the same reading level.
